#1 Larnell Cole
His must be a new name for Kerala Blasters, but Larnell Cole is a Manchester United youth academy graduate.
Cole began his career with Manchester United and was a consistent performer in the club’s youth teams. Having spent three years at Old Trafford, he made only one senior appearance. He then switched to Fulham and played under Rene Muelensteen, with whom he had contacts at Manchester United.
His connection with Muelensteen makes him the favorite player for Kerala Blasters to sign, keeping in mind the way Kerala Blasters signed other players through Meulensteen's connections from his time at the elite clubs.
This 24-year-old has got some quick pace and creative mind. Cole, who also has experience of playing in the Scottish top tier and English third tier, could bolster Kerala Blasters midfield considerably.
